We have introduced a fast group-wise registration scheme for correction of non-rigid motion in prostate DCE exams. We demonstrate the robustness of the algorithm in correcting motion even in presence of coil shine through artifacts, and retaining signal characteristics. Overall, motion correction results in lower dispersion of pK parameters in a given tissue ROI and improved confidence in interpretation of DCE data.
